THE PITH OF THE TROUBLE
ALLEGED REASON FOR A CURRENT
ROW IN THE K. OF L.

The Story of an Attempt to Kill Powderly
Revived-What Beaumont Says-Testing
the Boycott in Court-Two Cases That
Have Bearing on Labor Methods
Field Notes.
NEW YORK, June 10-Henry Eirmann, a
journeyman brewer of Brooklyn lost his EN-
ployment May 8 last and since then he has
not, he says, been able to get work. because
of the hostile action of the Brewers Journey
mems union of New York, to which he once
belonged Henry Reeg, the president of the
union, accused him recently of appropriating
its money to his use and he was suspended
from membership for two months Eirmann
maintained that the accusation was false, and
that he did not receive fair trial A relent-
less boycott was, however, placed upon him.
Wherever he appeared for work, which he
did persistently, he was met with the same an
swer: ave can not employ you, for if we do
we will have trouble with the union"
Eirmann has brought a suit for s25, 900
damages against Henry Reg, the president OF
the union, for preventing him from obtaining
work. He has also petitioned the supreme
court for an order to show cause why an in
junction should not be granted pending the
trial Of the suits restraining the defendant Reeg
from taking action in opposition to his efforts
to obtain employment The motion for an
injunction came before Justice Willard Bart
lett at special term of the supreme court
Thursday Justice Bartlett granted an order
requiring President Reg to show cause why
an injunction should not issue This raises
the direct issue whether labor union has the
right to prevent any one from obtaining EN-
ployment and apply the boycott. If a per
manent injunction is granted, and the mem
bers of the union still persist in their hostile
action they will be guilty of contempt Of
| court, and subject themselves to severe pun
shment
Troy, N Y, June l0-Michael Kennedy
of this city, a X. of L., has brought suit
against Michael Casey, John Clifford and
| others, charging them with conspiracy be
| cause they would not work with him. All
| are carpenters, but Kennedy is X. of L.
| while the others are members of the Carpen
ters' union, which does not affiliate with tht
knights. The suit promises to deepen the an
| tagonism of the two organizations, which
have had no good feeling toward each othel

ParneH Men Take Turn at Cloture and
Shut OFF smith,


LONDON, June 10.-In the house Of COM
mons Thursday, after Smith, the Conserva-
tive leader, had announced that he would
move on Friday that the committee on the
crimes bill name day on which they will re-
port the BILL Morley protested against the
shortness of the notice. He hoped the time
would be extended at least one day. lCries of
mo- from the ministerialists
Smith replied that Morley must have ex-
pected the notice. The matter had been re-
ferred to on Tuesday, but the government had
not been able to decide until Thursday upon
the terms of the notice. Smith refused to say
how long a period the committee would be
asked to allow
number of amendments to the fourth
clause were introduced, when cloture was
applied, and on a division four of them were
rejected Balfour moved to omit from the
clause the section providing for change of
venue for Irish trials from Dublin to London.
tParnellite cheers He admitted that there
had been raised strong objections to that pro
vision, but said that as long as the govern
ment carried its points it had no desire to be
obstinate as to the manner of its doing so, and
therefore it was deemed wise to abandon the
section in favor Of trials by commission OF
judges.
Harcourt asserted that popular opinion
had forced the government into taking the
stand indicated by Balfour, and character
lied that gentlemans proposal as a decent
sham
Smith arose to speak, but the Parnellite
members interrupted him with shouts for
cloture and before he had spoken sentence
Healy moved that the question he put The
motion was agreed to amid tremendous cheers
from the Parnellite and Liberal benches and
Smith sat down Balfouris motion WIS car
ried without division.
Smith announced that at 10 O'Clock on the
evening of June II he would move that the
chairman forthwith put the question on any
motion, amendment or proposal referring tc
the clause then under discussion, and also on
each of the rem aiming clauses This will shut
off all amendments and will be bitterly op
posed by the home rulers, but the government
has assurance of full support and will carry
its point with hardly a doubt
BaIfour said proposal for trials in ireland
by commission of judges would be embod-
led in a second bill
The Standard says that section OF the
Parnellite members are in favor of having nc
further discussion of the crimes bill if Smiths
motion is carried The others, however, are
firm in their resolve to resist by violent aud
disorderly protest to the last.
